The NBA is targeting Tuesday, December 22nd for the start of the 20-21 season with a 72-game regular season that finishes before the 2021 Olympics begin on July 23rd, reports The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
The league has started the season on a Tuesday in recent years with a doubleheader on TNT, and beginning the 2020-21 season around Christmas Day would allow the league to return to a semi-normal schedule while potentially allowing stars to play in the Olympics.
The NBA reportedly still prefers in-market play for the 20-21 season instead of a bubble or multiple bubbles.
